- Added new "macro" functions spe_float_min() and spe_float_max()
to rtasm_ppc_spe.{ch}. These emit instructions that cause
the minimum or maximum of each element in a vector of floats
to be saved in the destination register.
- Major changes to cell_gen_fragment.c to implement all the blending
modes (except for the mysterious D3D-based PIPE_BLENDFACTOR_SRC1_COLOR,
PIPE_BLENDFACTOR_SRC1_ALPHA, PIPE_BLENDFACTOR_INV_SRC1_COLOR, and
PIPE_BLENDFACTOR_INV_SRC1_ALPHA).
- Some revamping of code in cell_gen_fragment.c: use the new spe_float_min()
and spe_float_max() functions (instead of expanding these calculations
inline via macros); create and use an inline utility function for handling
"optional" register allocation (for the {1,1,1,1} vector, and the
blend color vectors) instead of expanding with macros; use the Float
Multiply and Subtract (fnms) instruction to simplify and optimize many
blending calculations.
- Added two new debug flags (to be used with the CELL_DEBUG environment
variable). The first, "CELL_DEBUG=fragops", activates SPE fragment
ops debug messages. The second, "CELL_DEBUG=fragopfallback", will
eventually be used to disable the use of generated SPE code for
fragment ops in favor of the default fallback reference routine.
(During development, though, the parity of this flag is reversed:
all users will get the reference code *unless* CELL_DEBUG=fragopfallback
is set. This will prevent hiccups in code generation from affecting
the other developers.)
- Formalized debug message usage and macros in spu/spu_main.c.
- Added lots of new code to ppu/cell_gen_fragment.c to extend the
number of supported source RGB factors from 4 to 15, and to
complete the list of supported blend equations.
More coming, to complete the source and destination RGB and alpha
factors, and to complete the rest of the fragment operations...
tgsi_exec_machine_bind_shader() isn't cheap so avoiding unecessary calls
is a big win.
A similar change should be done for softpipe's fragment exec path but
extra care needs to be taken with the texture sampler state/params.
This fixes parsing errors seen with optimized builds on PPC (which led to crashes).
The memcpy() is heavy-handed, but works. A lighter uint assignment could
be used on x86...
